She was also a Cruz supporter last year.
Pierson sent out this tweet in 2012, which has been gaining traction on social media channels this week:Perfect Obama's dad born in Africa, Mitt Romney's dad born in Mexico. Any pure breeds left? #CNNDebateEarly Sunday morning, Rowling linked to Pierson's comment in her own tweet and seemed to suggest that the Trump spokeswoman was a "Death Eater."

These people are crazy
"Any pure breeds left?"
Dunna know, I'm a fuckin' mutt so's my kid and all our kin....
Unless you are fucking your someone from your clan or a close relative, you are most likely to some degree a mutt. Human's are not like dogs and cats where pedigree is closely watched to make sure they are pure breeds. I remember the time we breed German Shepherds, we made sure when the female was in heat, she was isolated away from any male (other than the desired male pure breed) until the she was pregnant and we also made sure the sire's paperwork was accurate before being chosen.
But then again, the woman saying this is crazy just like Trump supporters, so nobody can really know what level of purity she using when she says pure breed.

Actually, it is quite clear from context that her definition of "pure breed" in that tweet is "having two American born parents".
STELTER: Would you like to retract that?
PIERSON: No, not at all. Look, these tweets––I’m an activist, and I am a half-breed, I’m always getting called a half-breed, and on Twitter, when you’re fighting with Twitter and even establishment, you go back at them in the same silliness they’re giving you. So I myself am a half-breed.
STELTER: You’re telling me that was just silliness?
PIERSON: Absolutely.
